Hi all.
Firstly, thank you for reading this and offering any advice. Aprrecaited.
Here is my plite.
I have a Packard Bell iXtreme 2613
Core2 Quad Q6600 2,4GHz chip set.
Link for spec. http://www.pixmania-pro.co.uk/uk/uk/599767/art/packard-bell/ixtreme-2613.html
Now, i use a program called Poser7 and it needs processor power rather then fancy graphics cards so i thought this PC would be fine, but it aint, i need more CPU speed, buying another PC is out of the question but i am told that the Q6600 chip set is pretty good and i can get around 3GHZ - 3.?GHz out of it without too much trouble, problem is my MB wont let me OC it so i need to get another MB but i have no idea where to start, nor do i have any idea how to OC
I have been told my a tech head at PC world that if i dont exceed 3GHz the fan i already have will be ok but i am up for any suggestions.
I am ready to find out anything else needed regaridng model numbers etc and i am most gratefull for any help offered.
I am also goint to buy a Full version of Windows 7 as i hear it works better for programs that do rendering like my Poser7 and 3DsMAX so a new board with no OS is what i need.
Please keep the lingo basic as i have no idea about the workings of a PC really lol and the only abbreviations i know are the ones i used in this post hahaha
Thank you and kindest regards,
Lee.
